Once you’ve read enough of the book, you get used to the way Gibbon writes and it becomes a lot easier to digest what is in the text. This book makes Roman history seem like a really long, kind of slow telenovella where everyone gets stabbed.

This absurdly large collection of Roman history is definitely a reflection of the author’s writing style as well as the language of the time, making it a hard read. However, its detail and insight into this monumental civilization is unmatched. If you love history this would be for you. If not, there are absolutely no redeeming qualities that would incline you to read it.

There are over 100 stories in this collection and I’ve only read a few. I can’t wait to learn of the rich stories the Grimm brothers collected while on their travels through Germany

So far Musashi has really given some deep, thought provoking advice through his use of comparisons I feel can still be connected with today. A lot of his advice was written initially about swordsmanship but a lot of the basic philosophies in his texts can be connected and used in other disciplines and even as a philosophy. It’s interesting to see how the greatest samurai in history viewed the world.
